BEAUTY IN A BLUR
Art Soul Life|May - July 2022
 A. Viswam's art disparages the linear theory of mechanical abstracts and goes beyond conventions of primal change. His abstracts are a free flow of stories, travels and association with rituals
BEAUTY IN A BLUR

The abstract art medium first came into the picture at the crossover of the twentieth century. It is an exceptional style of art that breaks away from canons as embodied in real-life figures and identified movement of figures and elements. There are artists and creators who have taken it upon themselves to take the art world by storm with their expansive art movements and techniques in beautiful abstracts. One of those veterans in space is A. Viswam. He is a master who started his journey in a small village in South India. He studied at the Kumbakonam College of Arts, and currently lives in Chennai with his family. Viswam creates his brilliant works in an art avenue with other gifted artists in Padappai, a town near Chennai. His knowledge of diverse traditional techniques with mythological and pastoral paintings ruled the canvases in his hometown and the places he painted as a young adult. The artist once worked with the Weavers Service Centre along with other talented artists and sculptors from different parts of India. He was also a student of the acclaimed and respected Tamil Nadu artist S. Dhanapal (1919-2000). Viswam was accustomed to an imperial array of creating art from figurative elements to temples, architectural abundance and ranges, institutions with exquisite energy and a traditional selection of examples from art teachers.
